couchdbkit script socket error [Errno 111] Connection refused

[Rob]

I have been following the examples and so far so good everything is
working on great. The example that invloves the greeting database
lets say. When i have couchdb running of localhost ( http://127.0.0.1:5984
) the script works fine and there are no errors. I have to bind
couchdb now to my ip address so i changed the bind address and now
couchdb is running of ( http://192.168.59.179:5984). When i run the
same script this is the error i get

Ok this is what i have found. in the couchdb default.ini i changed
the bind address from 192.168.59.179 to nothing so its like this

port = 5984
bind_address =
